$ sudo dnf --enablerepo=updates-testing
usage: dnf [options] COMMAND
List of Main Commands:
autoremove remove all unneeded packages that were originally installed as
dependencies
check check for problems in the packagedb
check-update check for available package upgrades
Yes, the command for installing something from that repo would be:
$ sudo dnf --enablerepo=updates-testing install <packagename>
I thought I had posted that precise command earlier in this thread, but
looking back, no, I didn't include the command verb (in this case,
"install"). My bad.
Sorry.
